That's interesting, and thanks. But it seems to bring up either comments or changes, not both at once. And unfortunately it's doesn't stay open for an alt+tab. I'm using Office 2010, if that matters, and current / latest JAWS.
On a related topic, does anyone know how to get JAWS to read a comment? I'm having some luck here by selecting the comment text with ctrl+A, but I wonder if there's a more elegant way. -Paul -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tim Ford via Jfw Sent: Thursday, April 30, 2015 5:27 PM To: The Jaws for Windows support list. Cc: Tim Ford Subject: Re: Shortcuts for track changes in Word Hi Paul, For starters, I use the windows key plus the ;. That brings up a JAWS-friendly list box of the fields in the Word document that are comments, revisions, footnotes, endnotes,and provide a link to each, along with the author's name and at least the opening part of the comment. Very helpful, and I think you can leave that window with the list open, and with alt-tab, an easy way of navigating between the document and that list. Let me know how things go with that approach.

I need to develop a scheme of keyboard shortcuts for reviewing MS Word documents using track changes. I'd rather not reinvent the wheel, so if someone here has already devised an efficient system, could you please share it? The simplest idea would be to assign keyboard shortcuts for the "next/previous change or comment" commands. I'd use those shortcuts to place the PC cursor at the desired change or comment, review it, and then take an action using the context menu. Not sure what key commands I would assign, though. Ctrl+shift+O / P for the "next/previous change or comment" would work well ergonomically, as an example, but lacks semantic significance, so I'm open to other ideas. Thanks for any input. -Paul -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
